Red Cloud and Band Visit Fort Laramie-Remonstrance from Mormon Women Against the Admission of Utah.
CHEYENNE, March 13—A telegram from Fort Laramie states that Red Cloud, with 200 war-riors, came to that post yesterday, and will hold a council to-day. Three hundred lodges are camped on Raw Hide, or near there.
SALT LAKE, March 13.—A memorial to the Pres-ident and Congress, protesting against the admis-sion of Utah, has been sent to Washington, signed by more than 500 apostate Mormon and Gentile ladies. The document contains a history of poly-gamous life, the oppression of Mormon leaders, and danger to the law-abiding population, by ad-mission. The alternative presented is, that women must either be consigned to the tender mercies of Brigham Young and his coadjutors, or leave the country. They pray Congress that its action may not compel either. A. delegation of women will probably go to Washington, and work against admission, and in favor of an anti-polygamic law, to protect the wives of Church leaders.
